Sorry I don't have any better/ > quicker ideas for you. > I have tracked this further and can now confirm that running the following test case (trimmed down from what cp is actually doing) in a directory which already contains a valid test.exe (copy of ls.exe) results in test.exe which is a directory not a file. #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> int main (int argc, char * argv[]) { int test_file; test_file = open ("test.exe",O_TRUNC | O_WRONLY); close (test_file); return 0; } I have attached the results of stracing this in case it helps. Before running the test program ls -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ None 12248 Jul 12 11:56 test.exe getfacl # file: test.exe # owner: Administrator # group: None user::rwx group::rwx mask:rwx other:rwx after running the test program ls drwxrwxrwx+ 2 Administ None 0 Jul 12 11:57 test.exe getfacl # file: test.exe # owner: Administrator # group: None user::rwx group::rwx mask:rwx other:rwx default:user::rwx default:group::rwx default:other:rwx
